The future of European AI is being written now

Can you imagine the world without machine translation, image recognition or virtual personal assistants? According to the European Commission, Europe must act to shape its own AI future based on our shared vision.

In December 2018, Joint Research Centre (JRC) published new report "Artificial Intelligence: A European perspective", which aims to take stock of the development of AI in the world today and lay out some of the options and pitfalls for EU policymakers in the face of strong competition, and competing visions, from the US and China.

„Europe must act to shape its own AI future based on our shared vision. If we don't act, AI's impact on our lives, our thinking, our jobs and even our interpersonal and societal relations will be decided elsewhere.”
